Nichido Pressed Powder: A Budget-Friendly Option for Oily Skin? 🤔

Image
Today, I’ll be sharing my experience with Nichido Pressed Powder . After testing various foundations recently, I found that some just don’t have the staying power I need. That’s where a good pressed powder comes in, providing that essential top layer to set and mattify makeup. With oily skin in mind, I set out to find a powder that could help keep my makeup intact. First Impressions According to the sales lady, Nichido Pressed Powder is a solid choice for oil control, and at ₱100 , it’s definitely worth a try! However, after just 2-3 hours , I noticed that the powder began to slide off my T-zone. Unfortunately, I don’t want to be blotting my face throughout the day.

Some of us are prudent in spending especially on makeup. We tend to search for the best product over the internet and make sure everyone else's agree before we make the purchase, right? Others may contest that it's easier and more practical to spend on the high end ones than to spend over and over again searching for the best drugstore product. However, if you are starting in the makeup business and would have 3 shades for every type of makeup, then drugstore would be far more economical. Today, we will check on  Loreal True Match Lumi Healthy Luminous Makeup SPF 20 . I stumbled upon this product a couple of times already when I googled "the best drugstore foundations"And based on some reviews, this product is said to have a flawless coverage with glow. With this, I opted for one. Anyway, if you are wondering where I got my foundation, I bought it from Chedelyn's store located in Pop Culture Trinoma. The foundation the sales lady gave me is W5 S...
